  		Cockerill - Chapman Plot -where Amy Cokerill and here parents are buried St Johns Church, Waikoiti, The Church of St John was built to serve a community which already had its own history and was developing its own traditions. The early history of Waikouaiti was wild. The whaling days lasted from 1837-1848, and in 1840 pre�fabricated farm buildings were brought from Australia and erected at Matanaka. On one occasion, 120 tons of liquor were landed for the 40 European whalers. This liquid refreshment was dispensed by the bucket and cask as bottles and glasses were regarded as being superfluous. As well as whalers there were escaped convicts and run-away seamen at the settlement. Their conduct was so bad that the local Maori people complained to the government. One of John Jones' employees, Captain Cherry (Cherry Farm is named after him) was killed by a Porirua chief and eaten in 1840. It is little wonder that "Mr Jones saw the advantage of planting the wholesome leaven of religious principles amongst both his European and Maori employees." The Church of St John was built in 1858
